F When the desired trip is displayed, press the reset button or the end of the wiper
control stalk.
Tr i p s 1 and 2 are independent but their use is
identical. For example, trip 1 can be used for daily figures
and trip 2 for monthly figures.
A few definitions…
Range
(miles or km)
The distance which can still be
travelled with the fuel remaining
in the tank (related to the average
fuel consumption over the last few
miles (kilometres) travelled).
This value may fluctuate if a change
of driving style or terrain results in a
significant change in the current fuel
consumption.
Dashes are displayed when the range falls
below around 20 miles (30km).
After filling with at least 5 litres of fuel, the
range is recalculated and is displayed if it
exceeds around 60 miles (100 km).
If dashes instead of figures continue to be
displayed when driving, contact the dealer
network or a qualified workshop.
Current fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l) Calculated over the last few
seconds.
This function is only displayed above
around 20
mph (30 km/h).
Average fuel consumption
(mpg or l/100 km or km/l)Calculated since the last trip
computer reset.
Average speed
(mph or km/h)Calculated since the last trip
computer reset.
Distance travelled

Recalling a stored position
Ignition on or engine running
F Press button 1 or 2 to recall the corresponding position. An audible signal
indicates the completion of the adjustment.
You can interrupt the current movement by
pressing button M , 1 or 2 or by using one
of the seat controls.
A stored position cannot be recalled while
driving.
Recalling stored positions is deactivated
45 seconds after switching off the ignition.
Heated seats control
F Use the adjustment dial, placed on the side of each front seat, to switch on and select
the level of heating required:
0 Of f.
1 Low.
2 Medium.
3 High.
With the engine running, the front seats can be
heated separately. Do not use the function when the seat is
not occupied.
Reduce the intensity of the heating as
soon as possible.
When the seat and passenger
compartment have reached an adequate
temperature, you can stop the function;
reducing the consumption of electrical
current reduces fuel consumption.Prolonged use at the highest setting is
not recommended for those with sensitive
skin.
There is a risk of burns for people whose
perception of heat is impaired (illness,
taking medication, etc.).
There is a risk of overheating the system if
material with insulating properties is used,
such as cushions or seat covers.
Do not use the system:
-

i
f wearing damp clothing,
-

i
f child seats are fitted.
To avoid breaking the heating element in
the seat:

Malfunction
When the ignition is on, a message appears
in the instrument panel screen to indicate a
gearbox fault.
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up
mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a
substantial jolt when changing from P to R and
from N to R. This will not cause any damage to
the gearbox.
Do not exceed around 60 mph (100 km/h), local
speed restrictions permitting.
Have it checked by a network dealer or a
qualified workshop.There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
-

i
f you press the accelerator and brake
pedals at the same time,
-

i
f you force the selector from position P
to another position when the battery is
flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when
stationary for long periods with the
engine running (traffic jam...), position
the gear selector at N and apply the
parking brake, unless it is programmed
in automatic mode.
Gear efficiency indicator
(Depending on engine.) System which reduces fuel consumption by
recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to skip one (or more) gear(s). You can
follow this instruction without engaging the
intermediate gears.
Gear shift recommendations should not be
considered obligatory. The configuration of the
road, the amount of traffic and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the best
gear. The driver thus remains responsible
for deciding whether to follow or ignore the
system's instructions.
This function cannot be deactivated.
With an automatic gearbox, the system is
only active in manual mode. The system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load,...) and
the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking,...).
The system never suggests:
-
e

ngaging first gear,
-
enga

ging reverse gear,
-
enga

ging a lower gear.
Example:
-
Y
ou are in third gear.
-
Y
ou press the accelerator pedal.
-
T
he system may suggest that you engage a
higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument
panel in the form of an arrow. With a manual gearbox, the arrow may be
accompanied by the gear recommended.

Stop & Start
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
t emporarily into standby – STOP mode – during
stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams,...).
The engine restarts automatically – START
mode – as soon as you want to move off.
The restart takes place instantly, quickly and
silently.
Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system
reduces fuel consumption and exhaust
emissions as well as the noise level when
stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The " ECO" warning lamp comes on in
the instrument panel and the engine
goes into standby automatically:
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds below
12 mph (20 km/h) or when the vehicle is
stationary with the PureTech 130 petrol and
BlueHDi 115 and 120 Diesel versions, when
you place the gear lever in neutral and you
release the clutch pedal,
-

W
ith an automatic gearbox , when the
vehicle is stationary and when you press
the brake pedal or put the gear selector in
position N . If your vehicle is fitted with this
system, a time counter calculates
the time spent in STOP mode
during a journey. It resets to
zero every time the ignition is
switched on with the key or the
"START/STOP" button.
STOP mode does not affect the operation
of vehicle systems such as braking, power
steering...
Never refuel with the engine in STOP
mode; you must switch off the ignition with
the key or the "START/STOP" button.
Special cases: STOP mode not
available
STOP mode is not activated when:
- t he vehicle is on a steep slope (uphill or
downhill),
-

t
he driver's door is open,
-

t
he driver's seat belt is not fastened,
-

t
he vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10
km/h) since the last engine start (with the
key or the "START/STOP" button),
-

t
he electric parking brake is applied or being
applied, -

t
he engine is needed to maintain a
comfortable temperature in the passenger
compartment,
-
d
emisting is active,
-
c
ertain special conditions (battery charge,
engine temperature, braking assistance,
exterior temperature, etc.) require the
engine to be running to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the " ECO" warning
lamp flashes for a few seconds then
goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
Going into engine START mode
The ECO warning lamp goes off and
the engine starts automatically:
-

w

ith a manual gearbox , when you fully
depress the clutch pedal,
-

w

ith an automatic gearbox:
•

Tyre under-inflation
d
etection
The tyre under-inflation detection system
is an aid to driving which does not replace
the need for vigilance on the part of the
driver. This system does not avoid the need to
check the tyre pressures (including the
spare wheel) every month as well as
before a long journey.
Driving with under-inflated tyres worsens
road-holding, lengthens braking distances,
causes premature wear of the tyres,
particularly in adverse conditions (heavy
loads, high speeds, long journeys).
Driving with under-inflated tyres
increases fuel consumption.
The inflation pressures defined for your
vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure
label.
Tyre pressure should be checked when
the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for
1 hour or after a journey of less than
6 miles (10 km) at moderate speeds).
Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the values
indicated on the label.
For more information on Identification
markings , including the tyre pressure
label, refer to the corresponding section.
Under-inflation alert
System which automatically checks the
pressures of the tyres while driving.
The system continuously monitors the
pressures of the four tyres, as soon as the
vehicle is moving.
A pressure sensor is located in the valve of
each tyre (except the spare wheel).
The system triggers an alert as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres. This warning is indicated by
continuous illumination of the lamp,
an audible signal and, depending on
the equipment installed, a message
displayed on the screen.
In the event of a problem on one of the tyres,
the symbol or the message appears, according
to equipment, to identify it.
F

R
educe speed immediately, avoid excessive
steering movements and sudden braking.
F

S
top as soon as it is safe to do so.
The loss of pressure detected does not
always cause visible bulging of the tyre.
Do not rely on just a visual check.

Fuel
Tank capacity: approximately 60 litres.
Low fuel level
When the low fuel level is reached
in the tank, this warning lamp
comes on in the instrument panel,
accompanied by an audible warning
and the display of an alert message.
When it first comes on, about
6 litres of fuel is left in the tank.
Until sufficient fuel has been added, every time
the ignition is switched on, this warning lamp
appears, accompanied by an audible signal
and an alert message. When driving, this
audible signal and alert message are repeated
with increasing frequency, as the level drops
towards 0 .
You must refuel as soon as possible to avoid
running out of fuel.
If you run out of fuel (Diesel), refer to the
corresponding section.
Refuelling
Additions of fuel must be of at least 5 litres, in
order to be registered by the fuel gauge. With Stop & Start, never refuel with the
system in STOP mode; you must switch
off the ignition with the key, or the START/
STOP button if your vehicle has Keyless
Entry and Starting.
Opening the filler cap may create a noise
caused by an inrush of air. This vacuum is
entirely normal, resulting from the sealing of the
fuel system.

opening of the fuel flap is heard.
This control remains active for a few minutes after switching off the ignition. If necessary,
switch the ignition on again to reactivate it.

If you are filling your tank to the top, do not
persist after the third cut- off; this could
cause your vehicle to malfunction.
Your vehicle is fitted with a catalytic converter,
which helps to reduce the level of harmful
emissions in the exhaust gases.
For petrol engines, you must use unleaded
fuel.
The filler neck is narrower, allowing only
unleaded petrol nozzles to be introduced.

Practical information

167
If you have put in the wrong fuel for
your vehicle, you must have the fuel
tank drained and filled with the correct
fuel before star ting the engine.
Fuel cut-off
Your vehicle is fitted with a safety system that
cuts off the supply of fuel in the event of an
impact.
Misfuel prevention
(Diesel)
(Depending on the country of sale.)
Mechanical device which prevents filling the
tank of a Diesel vehicle with petrol. It avoids
the risk of engine damage that can result from
filling with the wrong fuel.
Located in the filler neck, the misfuel
prevention device appears when the filler cap
is removed.
Operation
When a petrol filler nozzle is introduced into
your Diesel tank, it comes into contact with the
flap. The system remains closed and prevents
filling.
Do not persist but introduce a Diesel type
filler nozzle.It remains possible to use a fuel can to fill
the tank.
In order to ensure a good flow of fuel,
do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in
direct contact with the flap of the misfuel
prevention device and pour slowly. Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be
different in other countries, the presence
of the misfuel prevention device may make
refuelling impossible.
Not all Diesel vehicles are fitted with
misfuel protection, so before travelling
abroad, we recommend that you check
with the dealer network whether your
vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps in the
country in which you intend to travel.
